*The Forum Rules.

Yep, rules. Read 'em. Abide by 'em. Or your sea creature powers may be revoked. Temporarily, or for good.

1. New to the lounge? Get started here. Learn which category to post your note in, and create a forum signature.
2. Spam: just don't do it. Thou also shalt not fill the forums with multiple threads on the same topic, sockpuppet, or link to irrelevant and non-Squidoo sites (includes signatures).
3. Thou shalt not flame, harass, denigrate, spam, malign, or otherwise finger-point and name-call at ANYONE. This one's a biggy. This too can get you banned.
4. Squidstaff love interacting with smart front-line people, so they stop by the forums from time to time to hear your ideas and share updates. However, this isn't the place to post bugs or solicit admin action. Please send those requests through our feedback link.
5. The SquidU forum is a place for users to interact, to share ideas and inspiration (and yes, gripes... maybe another lensmaster can help) and have fun with their lenses. Try searching for an answer or visiting The Answer Deck.

Syndicate Your Lenses

Here's a trick that's working well for me; simply syndicate your RSS feed of lenses via a whole bunch of syndication sites. You will then get some good backlinks from them. Here's how:

1. Get your very own lensmaster feed (I don't mean the feed from an individual lens).
2. Submit it to some of the services that let you syndicate your RSS feed.

This lens hasn't been updated for a while, but I'm planning to update it soon. If you Favourite it, I'll send out a Squidcast when I have. If you know of any good services that are missing, tell me about them so that I can include them.

Re: Syndicate Your Lenses

Just a note, this is a pretty good trick.

I consistently see backlinks from my syndicated lensmaster feeds when I run backlink reports on my top lenses.

Re: Syndicate Your Lenses

It's quite amazing how well syndication works - after a while you start seeing backlinks from all kinds of odd places. Which is good.
